I think you might have to draw that one by hand using lines on the GRID sheet and HEX/SQUARE GRID layer. Once drawn, group the lines using Group, under Groups in the Tools menu. Then it should behave exactly like an automatically drawn grid.

You can create a snap grid of any rectangular dimension with different scales x and y, so it might be useful to do one of those first to make drawing the visual grid a lot easier. Right click the GRID button and create a NEW grid.

You're welcome :)

Most of the things you are highlighting as being an issue are down to sheet effects. If you put an Edge Fade, Inner sheet effect on the snow you will be able to show the bevel on the coast. You can also use one of 3 colour modifying sheet effects on the swamp areas to change the colour. These are (in order of ease of use) the Adjust Hue/Saturation, Colorize, and RGB Matrix Process.

I recommend using all the same mountains and hills if you are going to use a different style. the hills really don't look that bad, even if they are paler. In fact it is better that they are paler than darker than the land since it makes them look like bumps rather than hollows. You can always replace them later using Replace in the Symbol Manager if you still don't like them.

Sheet effects are always a personal taste. You can learn a lot by experimentation.

Looks pretty good already :)

Have you considered making the textures larger? Sometimes the detail can be a bit too small to look like anything much. And don't forget that you can also use the same texture on different sheets with different colour altering sheet effects.

Hi Everyone! :D

Tomorrow's Live Mapping session will be very special, since a new symbol set doesn't come along every day. Ralf will be showcasing the very beautiful and brand new Symbol Set 6 - Isometric Cities, by Mike Schley.

We must all be in the bad boys batch :P

Thank you :)

And I won't be adding any water to my PC. Despite the problems its not a bad machine when it's working, so I'm hoping to network it with Profantasy's PC once it's repaired. If nothing else it can function as two extra drives, but since it is Win 10 it may also be quite useful if some of my antiquated apps decide not to work on Win 11.

Hi Everyone! :D

This week, Ralf will be taking a look at how to create varied and interesting forests and woodlands
